Wolf Reborn

So it's Tuesday and we are up to book three in the Westervelt Wolves series. If you have not figured it out yet we are spotlighting the series by Rebecca Royce all this week and she will be blogging with us on Friday!! WOO HOO so stop by and leave a comment and I am sure she will try and answer it then. Because of they way that this series is written, reading in order will greatly add to your understand and enjoyment....and it will keep my head from popping off. LOL

Wolf Reborn, Rebecca Royce, Liquid Silver BooksA lone wolf is a dangerous creature, until he meets his mate. Then he’ll become lethal to protect her. Faith Anderson never asked to be a wolf shifter, but one strange encounter with the Westervelt Wolves and she suddenly has a past she knows nothing about and a future wrought with danger. No one is more disappointed than she to discover that the island does not hold a mate for her…that is, until she collides with Theo Kane, the missing prince of the Westervelt Wolves who has chosen isolation to save his pack from what he believes are his insane tendencies. Theo couldn’t imagine anything worse than the near death experience that left him scarred and forever changed. Until some of the same things start happening to Faith. Now he has no choice but to face what he has avoided for over a year if he doesn’t want the past to repeat itself, this time taking Faith along for the ride. Together they will battle demons, invisible wolves, and worst of all his father to find their eternal love.

Faith, who we met in the previous book has finally come to Westervelt Island and has found her spot in the pack as head of security. She is still having some trouble adjusting to her wolf and is disappointed that none of the wolves are her mate.

Theo has taken to living in the woods in his wolf form. After being disfigured while saving the Alpha's son from a kidnapping attempt by demons under their fathers control, he doesn't trust himself around his family. But there is still a traitor among the pack, and while out scouting, an unseen attacker shoots at him and forces him over a waterfall to escape being shot.

When Faith sees a wolf go over the falls, she jumps in to save him and when she drags him to safety she realizes there is another Kane brother that she didn't know about and this brother is her mate!

The two must work together to find the traitor and stop Theo's megalomaniac father from furthering his plans.

I enjoy these stories on several levels. These people are shifters, but I don't know that I have read another series where the wolf personality is basically a sentient being. The human and wolf personalities can be almost opposites and I think it adds and interesting twist to the story. I enjoy reading about their perseverance after everything that has been taken from them they continue to fight to get their way of life back and continue to have hope that they will find their missing women. I like the strong female characters that this author continues to create. The biggest drawback to these stories is their length and I feel the plot and character development suffer from the short length. I do find myself looking forward to the next book to see what happens next. I give Wolf Reborn 3 chocolate dipped strawberries.
